At £1,129, this Roksan Caspian M2 CD Player sits just above the 75th percentile of £1,015 from your ground-truth listings, making the price ambitious rather than fair, especially when new stock is available for £1,149. While it edges out the typical used median of £890, the asking price offers little discount over the current retail deal, reducing its appeal as a bargain compared to buying new with full warranty.
However, the Caspian M2 remains a highly regarded, award-winning source that delivers exceptional build quality and precise, musical CD playback with minimal noise. If this unit is from an original owner, includes all accessories, and shows no wear, it represents a solid, well-loved product for those who prefer the tactile joy of a used hi-fi icon and want to avoid the higher cost of newer alternatives.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Roksan emerged in London in 1985, founded by Tufan Hashemi and Touraj Moghaddam, two Persian-heritage graduates of Imperial College London and Queen Mary College. Dissatisfied with prevailing turntable designs, they launched the groundbreaking Xerxes platform at that year's hi-fi show, challenging traditional construction and establishing the brand's reputation for radical innovation. Named after Roxana, daughter of Persian King Darius, Roksan infused its identity with cultural roots while rooting itself firmly in British audio engineering.
The brand specializes in high-fidelity components, starting with its iconic analog vinyl replay systems like the Xerxes turntable and Artemiz tonearm. It expanded into amplifiers (Kandy, Attessa, Caspian series), CD players, digital sources, and speakers, blending timeless design with robust engineering. Now hand-built in Rayleigh, Essex, under the Monitor Audio Group since 2016, products like the latest Caspian Series 4G cater to both vinyl enthusiasts and modern streamers.
Roksan occupies a distinctive niche in the high-end hi-fi market as a stylish British disruptor, prized for its boundary-pushing sound quality, reliability, and unconventional aesthetics. Far from mid-tier or vintage obscurity, it commands respect among discerning buyers seeking musical soul over conformity, with a legacy revitalized rather than diluted by its corporate home.
